Wooo! I'm feeling sooo good right now. I've just handed in a big chunk of writing to my editor. This means I can have a guilt free rest day - before I get back on with the rest of that book. What shall I do? Go bungy jumping, salsa dancing, take in theatre show, or have a slap up meal with Al? Nah, I think I fancy: walking Beans on the sea front, sewing something for fun, watching a movie on telly and then nomming ribs and salad for tea - awww right!
I have to say; I love so much that you have still continued to say hi in emails and on the sosh media. I really appreciate the link love that you're sharing too - even though I've not been blogging as much you're still out there keeping tabs and that's very touching. Thank you.
So, before I pop out of the house with Beanie I wanted to post this give-away, becuase: it's been a long time since we had one, it helps keep my craft gear in order and therefore it'll go to a more deserving home than mine.
**Oh, before I post my own give-away do pop over to the ace Fat Quarterly blog where Kate had made a reviewed my Easy Peasy Purse Kit and she's giving one away!
This purse kit is up for grabs on the Fat Quarterly blog.
Right back to my give-away. Here's what crafty contraband we got comin' your way...
Firstly we have sewing and knitting mags all with yummy and quality projects and a decent level of technical information. They all 2011 issues.
The pattern and instructions are included for this cute skirt - if I had the time I'd love to whip up one of these! Inside sewing World mag.
Same can be said for this sweet halterneck/waistcoat... Inside sewing World mag.
Cute socks aplenty! I can't knit (or crochet) for toffee so let's not even go there! From Knitting Magazine. All the following project pics have instructions included to make 'em...

So so gorgeous!!!! (not sure about the boy jumper, but look at the girl and her top what a cutie!)

And we also have some brand new sewing pattern-age goodness. The 3 patterns above are by Cheryl Kuczek of Paradiso Designs. This lady knows her shapes! Check out her site for more patterns and lots of free tutes too!
It might be summer, but that don't mean nuthin to the rainclouds (which is why Amy B's raincoat will deffo come in handy!) This Carpet bag pattern is one of our best sellers (it'll be back in stock V soon) - when teamed with a bag frame it makes the most adorable shaped carpet bag...

..see what I mean? Beautifully made by Marion G. (Sorry this bag isn't included in the give-away).
